Bad Week To Be My Mom...

Well, this stuff actually happened last week, but I am just editing this post, so there ya go...

Several Days Ago:
My mom found out yesterday that she is diabetic, Type 2. Lots of diet/exercise planning and some medications and she will be on track to a healthy lifestyle. Not fun news, let me tell you! But at least it explains some mood swings and fatigue that have been plaguing her lately. ;)

My momma (step-mom) went into the hospital today... Appendicitis, no joke! Poor Momma has had some health issues as of late and she just deserves a break! She will be able to go home tonight, but has a ton of rest ahead of her!

My "adopted mom" (the kids' godmom) had a severe ear infection and is finally recovering. When I say severe, I really mean it! She had to get tubes in her ears... 1st adult the doc had ever performed the procedure on!

If you've ever felt I would make a wonderful daughter, I recommend dismissing the idea immediately!
Back to Real Time:
To top all this off Little Miss had a lung infection last week and now is running a fever. With only 1.5 days until her Bday party, I'm feeling really bad for her! Sometimes, you just wish you could take it all away!

Go figure...

Just when the hubby has a few days off and it seems like you just might be able to get some things done... Everyone in the house has a stomach bug!

I'll do you all a favor and NOT share more about it later;)

1 Week(felt like 1 Month) in review...

Okay, I'll just do a quick recap, in case you're wondering why I haven't posted:)

My mom graduated from Friend's University. Now she is not only qualified to completely develop and create a classroom's curriculum, assignments, tests, and computer programs that run all of it... she is officially a teacher with a music degree! She's the original Jane of All Trades:)

Then there was Mother's Day.... and well, you already know how that started:)

My nephew turned 1, had a super-cute, very blue birthday party!

My big sis moved to California with her fiance; they arrived at their new home yesterday.

"Aunt" Amy(the kids' Godmother) went into the hospital. She had a lump removed from her chest, under her ribcage on Wednesday and we are waiting for results from the biopsy. (Please pray for her recovery!)

The idler pulley wheel, something-or-other busted off of our Jeep causing it to freak out and overheat on Wednesday... yep, while I was driving it. We get it back Monday.

Alex and Mr. Cool got very sick, very quickly with suspected cases of meningitis. (Antibiotics cleared up whatever bacterial thing it was, so they are "all better now". Thank Goodness!

Mr. Cool turned 7! On to 2nd grade next year. (WOW!)

The new Tiger exhibit opened at our Zoo, so we just HAD to see it:)

And to top it all off, the season finale of Bones was terribly unsatisfying:) At least he's still alive, I guess...

Update on my Dad

Well, it isn't swine flu, thank goodness. Just good old-fashioned influenza. So, he will get to be at the birthday party and going away party and everything else! So happy he didn't start an epidemic in Kansas:)

Anyone else wanna get sick?!

So, Alex is fine, nothing major. She just has a little bug and is fighting it just fine with antibiotics and cough meds. But now, I just got a message from Momma that my Dad is sick... They just got back from a trip Las Vegas and he has a supposed case of swine flu. Yeah, my Dad seems to be prone to catching the wierd stuff. When I was in hospital having Alex, he had to sit down to hold her because he had vertigo. Either way, I really hope he gets better soon:) My sister is moving to California in two weeks and my nephew's 1st bday party is next weekend, so he needs to hurry it up:)
Well, pray for him if you would, he's pretty important to me!
